Artist Services (and you thought MacGyver could solve your problems)
Artist Registrations are GO!
The Adelaide Fringe Artist Services team has been eagerly awaiting this moment for five months. With a decade of experience between them, they have become addicts of the artist variety. They need their fix – they need artists to register!
The phones are up and running, the office mirror ball dusted, the rug laid, the lamps lit and the how-to guides bound. The Artist Services team – Michelle, Carin and Eugene – are ready to answer all questions about how to register a show, find a venue or even get over to Adelaide. They’ll even let you in on all the hot tips on running shows and exhibitions while having the time of your life (Patrick Swayze moments not included).

2011 Poster Competition – NOW OPEN!
The Adelaide Fringe is giving artists, designers, students and amateurs alike the chance of a lifetime to design the 2011 Fringe poster.
For the first time, all design submissions will be made online and entrants are encouraged to incorporate a range of mediums such as animation, sculpture, photography, painting and computer-generated and digital imagery.
The Brief
We invite entrants to let their mind run free and create an iconic or ironic ‘King and Queen of the Fringe’. They could exist in a parallel Adelaide Fringe universe but must embody the creative spirit of the Adelaide Fringe. From cyber punk to manga, street art to pop, our very own Fringe Royalty exists in a fantastical world where only the strongest, boldest and most colourful will survive.
Only create a ‘King and Queen of the Fringe’ and do not include the ‘Adelaide Fringe 2011′ text or dates.
The Perks
The winner will enjoy national and international exposure, their design promoting the largest arts event in the Southern Hemisphere. The image will feature on the front cover of the largest arts festival print run in Australia, the 2011 Adelaide Fringe Guide and to sweeten the deal the winner will also receive a $1,000 Flight Centre
travel voucher.
When: The Adelaide Fringe 2011 Poster Competition is open from Saturday 24th July until Wednesday 8th September 2010.
What You Need: Download your entry form here.
How to Enter: Submit your design and completed Fringe Poster entry form to: buzz@adelaidefringe.com.au (max 10MB) by 5pm, Wednesday 8th September.
The 2011 Adelaide Fringe will be held from 18 February to 13 March 2011.
